I might have made a huge mistake. I got an Ipad. Now don't get me wrong, the thing is pretty damn awesome, but I've found my attention seems to be somewhat more focused.

"That's a good thing, right?" my neighbor said.

Depends on what you're focused on and in my case it's this gadget I'm now typing on. I've had the thing for a little more than a week now, and I've only written about a thousand words on the novel.

"What novel?" my neighbor asked.

The one that I'm currently working (not) on I told him. The one I've been laboring on almost non-stop for two months. The one that seems to focus all my attention. Until now. I mean come on! Words with friends and We Farm are calling. Angry Birds and Cut the Rope need my cunning logic. And if I don't tend to my Vegas Tower, everything will burn down! WTF!!

Maybe it's the fact I need a little break. I don't know. I try not to question these things that consume me, I'm sure there is some great purpose in all this. It's probably my brain yearning for a little relief from the constant plotting and conjuring. Nothing like a little mind-numbing Facebook perusing to recharge the batteries. I'll get back to it as soon as my broccoli is harvested. I promise.
